Canadiens' Byron Froese: Grabs second helper in three games

by RotoWire Staff | Special to CBSSports.com

(2/9/18)Froese collected an assist and a two-minute minor penalty in Thursday's 5-3 loss to Philadelphia.

Froese had gone 10 straight without a point before snaring primary assists in two of the last three games. As a center on the fourth line and a penalty-killing staple, there aren't many scoring opportunities for Froese.

(12/23/17)Froese recorded a goal, an assist and five shots on goal in a 3-2 victory against the Flames on Friday.

The 26-year-old doesn't have impressive numbers, but it's been a very good month for Froese. He started December with a two-point outing, and since then, he has five points, including his first goal of the season, in seven games. That gives him seven points in eight games this month, which is more than he had in his 71 games prior to December.

(12/2/17)Froese gathered two assists in Saturday's 10-1 home win over the Red Wings.

You know life is good for your squad when even fourth-line skaters, like Froese, are scribbling all over the box score. The 26-year-old was the primary distributor on goals that went to Nicolas Deslauriers and David Carr, respectively. Still, don't go thinking that two-point outings will be a new trend for the third-year pivot; Froese doesn't play enough.

(11/27/17)Froese recorded two shots, three blocked shots and a minor penalty through just 9:40 of ice time during Monday's 3-1 win over Columbus.

The 26-year-old forward has how failed to record a point in all eight games he's played this season, and Froese has only topped 10 minutes of ice time in a single outing. As a result, he's off the fantasy radar in the majority of settings.

(11/7/17)Froese was recalled by the Canadiens on Tuesday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

Froese hasn't played in the big league yet this season. He's replacing Michael McCarron in the lineup, and McCarron has played in seven consecutive games, which bodes well for Froese's chances to crack the lineup.
